No Xp networking w/ vista or using other toys

I have not been able to intergrat my new vista laptop with my xp home
network. i don't think you can. i also can't use my usb travel drives or use
my cell phone software becuse vista won't download the device drivers. even
if i try to download them manaully it won't work. vista is starting to suck
and be a waste of money

I have the exact same problems. I can't beleive Vista is not able to
recognize XP computers on a network. And I thought that Microsoft delayed
Vista to tackle all these issues... As for the USB flsh drives I'm sure that
Vista drivers will come out in the next few months. Well, all I can say is
that Microdoft has to work on an SP1 real soon!
